Examples of fundable projects include diversionary and educational activities for young people, workshops, intergenerational projects, support for meeting places (community centres, village halls, playing fields), energy efficiency schemes such as ground source energy schemes, rain harvesting, including top up grants. Projects for older people may include help to tackle isolation, loneliness and dementia, volunteer costs, sitter and companionship. Grants of up to £5,000 are available to volunteer led not for profit community groups. The Trust will award grants to projects that benefit local people living within a ten mile radius of the wind farm site at Tydd St Mary ( priority will be given to those within a five mile radius).
We thank East Lindsey District Council, The Horncastle Lions and the Horncastle & District Health and Wellbeing Fund for providing this funding so we can distribute small grants to those individuals (in East Lindsey) who were flooded following Storm Babet on 19th and 20th October.
